Subject: spurious mce Hardware Error messages in next-20250912

On my MSI Alpha 15 (amd64) laptop running debian stable(trixie) and  
kernel next-20250912 I noticed the following mce error message in demsg:

[   T10] mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
[   T10] [Hardware Error]: Corrected error, no action required.
[   T10] [Hardware Error]: CPU:0 (19:50:0) MC11_STATUS[-|CE|-|AddrV|-|-|-|UECC|-|Poison|-]: 0x8400aa4800a90139

The messages start about 333.34s after boot and usually appear 327.68s appart
(Yes, these timings are reproducible!):
$ dmesg | grep mce

[ 1644.058303] [     T10] mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged

As these messages do not appear in v6.17-rc5 I bisected the issue 
(from v6.17-rc5 to next-20250912) and found this as the first bad commit:

cf6f155e848b ("x86/mce: Unify AMD DFR handler with MCA Polling")

Are these error messages a new error that was not reported previously or
are these error messages a sign that the new code erroneously reports errors?
